In-depth analysis of the song:    • "Break the Rules" in-depth analysis!  

This is the vocal version of "Break the Rules" first featured in the Scarface Packs trailer, that also has a chance to play in-game instead of the regular instrumental assault track. All credits go to Simon Viklund and OVERKILL Software/Starbreeze Studios. I simply spliced in the last few seconds from the trailer as they are absent from the game version and added the lyrics.

The lyrics are in the video, but here they are in full:

You and I
We've been going the distance
Aiming for the sky
With a secret ambition

It's not our thing to walk the road that's paved
We're not the ones who roam the trail that's blazed
And there's a flame in your eyes that's igniting mine
I know I've seen it before
In the gaze of the prowling lion
I'm not afraid anymore!

(chorus:
Let's break the rules!
And really put our backs into it
Max out, pursue it
What's a better time than now to cross the line

Don't brake, let loose
And make sure that your heart is in it
Start line to finish
For every second rushing by we're losing time)

You and I
Breaking free of our prisons
We defy
The control of the system
The thunder's growing louder in our hearts
A storm is rising, this is where it starts!

(chorus)

-We're losing time!

(solo)

-You and I

And there's a flame in your eyes that's igniting mine
I know I've seen it before
In the gaze of the prowling lion
I'm not afraid anymore!

(chorus x2)

-We're losing time!
